kad´mi-el (קרמיאל, ḳadhmī'ēl, “before God,” “priest”(?); “Cadmiel” in parallel lists in 1 Esdras 5:26, 58 the King James Version; omitted in Septuagint Codex Vaticanus; Codex Alexandrinus reads kaī Kadmiḗlon):

A Levite (Ezr_2:40; Neh_7:43), founder of a family whose descendants returned from captivity with Zerubbabel (Ezr_2:1; Neh_7:43; Neh_12:1, Neh_12:8). He is named among those who praise God for the return (Neh_9:4, Neh_9:5; Neh_12:24); was of those who “set forward” the work of the Lord's house (Ezr_3:9; 1 Esdras 5:26, 58), and is again mentioned with those who “seal” the new Return Covenant (Neh_10:28 ff) after the re-establishment of worship (Neh_10:1, Neh_10:9).
